At least they didn't put up a picture of a "Glock 40" or AK-47.

Then at around 9pm, he picked up his handgun and announced he was going to play Russian roulette.

He then aimed one or two empty clicks at the dog's head - before turning the gun on himself.

Captain Jim Andrews, of the South Bend Police Department, told the local newspaper his wife 'said he got tired of that, then put the gun to his own head and pulled the trigger'.

She immediately called police. When they arrived Mr Little was still alive, and he was rushed to Memorial Hospital.

No, immediately would have been when he said he was going to play Russian Roulette.

I think the worlds a better place when the sucidal drunk jerk who almost kills his own dog dies instead of the dog.

But that may jist be me.

Yeah, it would be really sad if he shot the dog :(

It's not just you.  No qualms over his exit from here.

I think my postion on this type of idiocy has already been established.

My paternal great grandfather reportedly shot the dog first,
then his wife,
then himself.

Nope....I'm good with that, too....but then, I prefer most dogs to most people.....

Sure, some dogs are easier to deal with than people - primitive beasts that dogs are.
I, for one, am beginning to realize the inherent value of human life, and wish great grandpa would've stopped after blasting Fido.

Shame the man died though. Suicide is almost never a solution.

Dog? Dogs are just meat, like pigs or cows.

I'd turn cannible before eating my dogs, but then, I love my dogs and detest most people....

Suicide is an option I wish more people would explore... Unfortunatly, the ones I wish would off themselves never do. 

[Lanius]

You know.. dog, pig, liberal, conservative, nazi.. they all taste mostly the same, if you season them properly.

Protein is protein. I'm not choosy. But cats (roof hare) are damned hard to get some eating out of. You have to let them marinate for a couple of days before you can strip the meat off the bones properly.

I hope for Lanius' sake that LadySmith doesn't get wind of his last post.  Shoes across the pond.

How do you say it? Bring her on

Yep, he'd be a goner.

[280plus]

She distapeared again... 

[seeker_two]

Yep, he'd be a goner.

He already is....just doesn't know it yet....

[RocketMan]

She distapeared again... 

I have a hunch she'll be back again.  Just a hunch, no special knowledge or anything.

While I agree in principle, I don't think the usual value-of-human-life comparison applies here.  It's not as if the guy was forced to choose between his own life and that of his beloved pet.  The situation was entirely of his own creation, the killing utterly gratuitous and unnecessary.

I take it you've never had the privilege of having a good canine companion in your life.

Well, actually, humans are just meat, like dogs, pigs or cows. I've never had a dog at home, but for a long time I was the only one who took grandma's dachshund out for walks. I liked the dog.. but let's face it. Cows, dogs, pigs and humans are all social animals capable of complex emotions. We eat some of them and consider that OK. Therefore, I think it'd only be honest to admit that eating any of them should be ok, as long as no undue suffering or torture is caused.

IMO, mortuary cannibalism is fine. I plan on donating all my organs in the event of my death, and if someone will have the guts to make stew out of the flesh, more power to him.

Why burn perfectly good protein no one needs anymore?

[BlueStarLizzard]

Wow, lanis.

Dogs are social animals, and have a unique bond with humans.

As for complex emotions, have you ever seen a dog go bonkers after losing someone, be it an owner or another dog in the family.

We have one family of clients with a greyhound named BoBo. They recently lost their irish setter to old age and bone cancer. BoBo had to come in during the days to hang out with one of our anatolians, because he couldn't be left alone and wouldn't eat at home. He missed Rue badly. He now has his own anatolian puppy that the family purchased from us. Last weekend he nearly destroyed a room at the shop when he was seperated from Sully for a few hours.

I'd still trade 100 dogs to give my grandfather back his chidhood.
